"Since the 1980s, the live export trade to south-east asia has become a major market for cattle from northern Australia. The trade has delivered significant benefits to both Australia and the importing countries. Northern Australia produces high-quality, tropically-adapted young cattle that suit the needs of south-east Asian countries while the strong feedlot sector in the region can efficiently deliver high weight gains on cattle on low-cost and readily available feed sources. ... This updated manual for south-east Asian feedlots is designed as a user-friendly practical reference, assisting managers of feedlots and their staff on key management areas such as feedlot design, animal management, nutritional requirements and overall feedlot management."--Preface.
